Best Answer
In Animal Crossing for Nintendo GameCube, Animal Crossing: Wild World for Nintendo DS, and Animal Crossing: City Folk for Wii, you upgrade Tom Nook's store by buying and selling things. Every Bell that a player spends or earns in the store increases a counter. (The counter is shared among all human villagers; NPC villagers do not affect it.) Once this counter passes a certain amount, the store will close the next day for an upgrade. On the GameCube and DS versions (not the Wii version), the final upgrade (Nookington's) requires someone from another town to buy something from your Nookway store after reaching the threshold, so you may need to buy another GameCube memory card.
The quickest legit ways to increase this counter are:
Paying back your loan does not by itself increase this counter. But if you're paying back your loan, you probably sold things to Tom Nook to get the money, and that increased the counter.
